TIP● When the key is turned to “ON”,
all segments and indicators of the
display come on for a few sec-
onds. During this time, the multi-
function display is performing a
self-test.● Be sure to turn the key to “ON”
before using the “SELECT” and

setting the brightness mode.
Odometer, fuel tripmeter, tripme-
ters, oil change tripmeter and V-belt
tripmeter modes
Pushing the “SELECT” button switch-
es the display among the odometer
mode “ODO”, the fuel tripmeter mode
“F”, the tripmeter modes “TRIP 1”
and “TRIP 2”, the oil change tripme-
ter mode “OIL TRIP” and the V-belt
change mode “BELT TRIP” in the fol-
lowing order:
ODO → F → TRIP 1 → TRIP 2 → OIL
TRIP → BELT TRIP → ODO
When approximately 1.6 L (0.42 US
gal, 0.35 Imp.gal) of fuel remains in
the fuel tank, the bottom segment of
the fuel meter and fuel level warn-
ing indicator will start flashing, and
the display will automatically change
to the fuel reserve tripmeter mode
“ F” and start counting the distance
traveled from that point. In that case,
pushing the “RESET” button switches
the display to the previous mode.
To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button until “Trip” or
“Trip F” begins fl ashing (“Trip” or “Trip
F” will only flash for five seconds).
While “Trip” or “Trip F” is flashing,
push the “RESET” button for at least
one second. If you do not reset the
fuel reserve tripmeter manually, it will
reset itself automatically and the dis-
play will return to the prior mode after
refueling and traveling 5 km (3 mi).TIPThe display cannot be changed back
to fuel reserve tripmeter “ F” after
pushing the “RESET” button.
OdometerTIP● For the U.K.: For any mode, the
odometer units can be switched
from kilometers to miles by push-
ing the “SELECT” button for 1
second.● If the odometer indicates “-----”,
have a Yamaha dealer check the
multi-function display, as it may
be faulty.

To reset a tripmeter, select it by push-
ing the “SELECT” button until “TRIP
1” or “TRIP 2” is displayed, and then
push the “RESET” button for at least 1
second.
TIPIf the tripmeter indicates “-----”, have
a Yamaha dealer check the multi-
function display, as it may be faulty.
